Instruction Sheet for CTM-70 High Temperature Transfer, Light Textiles
Instructions:
− This special paper allows you to transfer your Laser image onto white, or light
coloured textile.
!
Printing
− Print your image in mirror reverse mode on the same side as the applied Feeding
Edge Printer / Copier.
!
Attention:
− Please carefully ensure, that the paper is placed with the FEP Stripe toward &
leading into the printer / copier.
!
Print Mode / Media Setting:
− Select plain paper on the Printer or in the Driver.
!
Toner transfer (fixing) is not sufficient enough?
− One reason for this can be, the temperature in the Fuser decreases during the
printing process.
− In the case select another media in the setting on the Printer or in the driver such
as: Thin Cardboard, Sticker, Label or other.
− You should now see that the media feeds through the printer / Copier at a much
slower speed and therefore is exposed for a longer period to the Fuser section.
!
In General
− On Printers / Copiers with faster running speeds of > 20 pages per minute, the
fuser runs immediately at high temperatures.
!
Jam in the Fuser
− If you experience a jam in the fuser, note the following procedure.
− Burn danger: Fuser stations are extremely HOT. Please take great care when
removing a jam from the fuser.
− Follow the information printed inside the printer and consult the printer / copier
manufacture manual
!
− Do not use any mechanical device or tools for removal.
− After removing the paper jam, feed a minimum of 5 to 10 sheets of plain copier
paper through the printer / copier.
− Types some letters via your computer in a text or layouts program and print this
out into plain paper. This action will help clean the fuser and the printer and can
then be used without any problems again.
Preparation hot press:
− Set the temperature range on your hot press between 180-190º Celsius, preferably
190º C (356-374º Fahrenheit), preferable 374º F.
− If you trim the image to shape after printing: leave at least 5 mm border around
the image.
− Place the paper with the image side placed down onto the T-shirt fabric which
must be wrinkle free and pre-ironed.
− Transfer the image with the heat press using the moderate to heavy pressure
setting for Approx 30 seconds. Now you can choose whether the printed image
should appear Satin or Glossy.
− A: Satin: Peal off carrier paper IMMIDIATELY after pressing and while it is still
hot.
− B: Glossy: let the paper completely cool and THEN peal off the carrier paper.
− If you change your mind and you prefer the Glossy image to come Satin.
− No problem! Place the T-shirts again in the press and cover the image with
ordinary Silicon Carrier Paper or kitchen baking paper and repeat the process
described under A:
− To give T-shirts smooth feel, carefully stretch the fabric image area in all
directions.
!
Washing
− Wash at max. 40º C, turning the garment inside out.
− Do not use bleach, do not use tumble dry.
− If you iron the T-shirts image after each wash, the colour will be re enhanced.
− During the iron protect the image with kitchen baking paper.
